### 5/5 — Finally solid

*2026-07-01*

Dev took feedback, implemented it, and fixed pressing bugs. App works solid now. Appreciate the awesome app.

### 1/5 — Dev unresponsive, notifications broken

*2026-06-18, version 2.4.0*

Literally most of the point of the app, with its up to 5 daily notifications, is essentially broken. Tried emailing the dev, talking to him on LINKEDIN even. Nothing.

### 5/5 — Superbly simple

*2026-05-26, version 2.2.3*

But extremely valuable. I look forward to the reminders every day.

### 5/5 — Thanks

*2025-10-27, version 2.1.0*

Just Wow.

### 5/5 — straightforward

*2025-10-03*

honestly love this app, it does what it advertises. very easy to understand, and a bonus for me, there’s a daily quote from philosophers. underrated app and should be on peoples phone more tbh

### 4/5 — Seems serviceable

*2025-05-16*

Seems good for what its goal is especially for the price. I would suggest to the dev that the daily quote notification should have the quote in the notification banner itself, rather than having to open the app to get it. Also, the book recommendations automatically link to the Amazon.UK site rather than the standard US app or site; just a minor nitpick.

### 5/5 — A perfectly simple app

*2025-05-12*

This app is honestly perfect. its ui is simple and clean and the quotes are high quality. my favorite feature is the “Momento Mori” (meaning: Remember that you will die) section that shows how many weeks you have lived compared to how many weeks you are expected to have left, which really puts things in perspective. 5/5, would recommend.

### 5/5 — Use daily

*2025-04-21*

The Daily Stoic is a way of life and a great resource for those who want to grow and gain wisdom while doing it.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2025-04-13*

It’s enjoyable and interesting

### 2/5 — Pay to update life expectancy???

*2025-03-14*

To make my life expectancy longer than 80 years requires a paid premium membership. Nah.
